Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 910 - 365: Shifting Circumstances, the Schemes of the Four Great Spirit Beast Clans (Part 2)
Upon hearing the Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race express his thoughts, the Qilin Race Elder Clan Leader, along with the two Grand Elders of the Black Tortoise Race and the Fire Phoenix Race, finally appeared somewhat appeased.
The Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise Race frowned and said, "If we directly engage in this impending war between the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Profound Yin Demon Sect, it might not be the best choice!
If the news of the Profound Yin Demon Sect obtaining Upper Realm Celestial Demon Power is false, the Spirit Platform Buddhism and the Immortal Realm Human Race should have a considerable chance of repelling those demons from the Profound Yin Demon Sect. After all, over countless millennia, whenever the Profound Yin Demon Sect launched its major assaults on the Immortal Realm Human Race, in the end, after harvesting lives, they were pushed back by the Immortal Realm Human Race!
Yet, if the Cyan Dragon Race leads our clans and the many demon races of Boundaryless Mountain to partake in this battle between the Profound Yin Demon Sect and the Immortal Realm Human Race, then the Human Race Immortal Realm will undoubtedly hold some advantage. Perhaps after the war concludes, the Human Race Immortal Realm will not only suffer no losses but might even grow stronger, making it uncertain whether we in the Boundaryless Mountain Range could maintain our peace!
After all, let us not forget, amidst the Human Race Immortal Realm, there are many Earth Immortals who perceive the Immortal Bodies of our Demon Kings within the Boundaryless Mountain Range as great nourishment! Even among the martial cultivators in those minor dynasties under the Human Race Immortal Realm, a great portion views the demon race of the Boundaryless Mountain Range as prime sustenance!
Compared to the demons of the Profound Yin Demon Sect, the Human Race Immortal Realm may not be as ruthless and lawless but they are certainly not tranquil or kind-hearted!
In my view, rather than engaging, our many demon races of the Boundaryless Mountain Range might as well sit back and observe, watching the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Profound Yin Demon Sect clash. The best outcome would be both sides suffering losses, thus sparing us the worry of future harvesting by the Profound Yin Demon Sect while ensuring the Human Race does not grow so powerful as to oppress our countless demon races of Boundaryless Mountain!"
The Qilin Race Elder Clan Leader’s brows furrowed slightly upon hearing the Black Tortoise Grand Elder’s words. Being closely allied with the Luo Water Immortal Sect for years, the Qilin Race always maintained good relations with the Immortal Realm Human Race and viewed them more favorably compared to other demon races, and thus they were unwilling to see the Human Race suffer significant setbacks.
Conversely, the Fire Phoenix Race Grand Elder Yan Liao, upon digesting the words of the Black Tortoise Grand Elder, couldn’t help but lightly clap with a smile,
"I always considered our Fire Phoenix Race to be ruthless in our dealings, yet unexpectedly, you of the Black Tortoise Race truly are more sinister, wishing for the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Profound Yin Demon Sect to mutually inflict great harm! However, you are not wrong; should both suffer losses, it indeed presents an opportunity for the myriad demon races of our Boundaryless Mountain to rise!"
The Black Tortoise Race Grand Elder softly shook his head, "This statement of yours is mistaken; what is sinister about this choice? This war between the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Profound Yin Demon Sect is certainly not stirred by this old fellow; their life-and-death struggles bear no relation to our Black Tortoise Race! I merely consider what would be more advantageous for the demon races from the perspective of the countless clans of the Boundaryless Mountain Range."
The Fire Phoenix Race Grand Elder Yan Liao once more chuckled with laughter, "Indeed, the fellows of the Black Tortoise Race, with their lengthy lifespans, truly become more astute with age! You, Grand Elder, even avoid leaving any opportunity for reproach in the hands of others!"
In this moment,
the Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race unexpectedly shook his head and spoke:
"What the Black Tortoise Race Grand Elder suggests would have been the best choice for the myriad demon races of Boundaryless Mountain more than ten days ago!
However, things are different now!"
At these words, the Black Tortoise Grand Elder couldn’t help but shrug his shell and furrowed a gaze towards the Cyan Dragon Race’s Second Elder Panzhu,
"Then what is your meaning, Second Elder? Should we aid the Immortal Realm Human Race, support the Spirit Platform Buddhism, or aid those ruthless demons of the Profound Yin Demon Sect? None seem to be the optimum choice!
Sitting back in observation over this imminent battle between the Immortal Realm Human Race and the Profound Yin Demon Sect would certainly be the best choice!"
Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race did not directly contend with the Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise Race; instead, he sighed lightly before speaking:
"Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise Race, what brings you to the Qilin Spirit Mountain of the Qilin Race?"
The Black Tortoise Grand Elder hesitated momentarily before replying, "Firstly, it is undoubtedly because the Qilin Race recently acquired a total of eighteen Immortal Artifacts, a monumental occurrence unlike anything any demon race has encountered within the Boundaryless Mountain for tens of thousands of years! We, as one of the allies of the Qilin Race, naturally should come to extend our congratulations!
Secondly, again, it relates to the Qilin Race acquiring eighteen Immortal Artifacts! Our numerous strong individuals within the Black Tortoise Race are eager with curiosity about who is this mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal that gifted the Qilin Race those eighteen Immortal Artifacts, what his background is, his ability, his methods, his context, etcetera, etcetera.
Thus, I journeyed far and wide with several demon kings, arriving at the Qilin Spirit Mountain!"
The Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race nodded, then turned to the Fire Phoenix Race Grand Elder Yan Liao, "Presumably, Grand Elder Yan Liao’s reason for visiting the Qilin Spirit Mountain is similar, is it not?"
Grand Elder Yan Liao of the Fire Phoenix Race nodded, "Naturally, it is for these two reasons."
The Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race sighed and stated:
"Indeed! I, like you all, am profoundly curious about that mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal!
Information I have received is even more precise: when this mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal repelled the Ba Xia Race outside the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land, confronting hundreds of their demon kings, he didn’t merely utilize a dozen Immortal Artifacts but rather deployed hundreds of them!
Hundreds of Immortal Artifacts!
Not addressing the strength, technique, or realm, nor his achievements in repelling hundreds of demon kings from the strong Ba Xia Race, just those hundreds of Immortal Artifacts alone are astonishing!
Even my Cyan Dragon Race, seating in the Boundaryless Mountain Range for tens of thousands of years, has gathered only dozens of Immortal Artifacts altogether,
yet this mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal used hundreds of Immortal Artifacts in merely one battle!
Even among the large, prominent sects within the Immortal Realm Human Race containing numerous artifact refiners, few sects could take out hundreds of Immortal Artifacts; even the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect that governs the Human Race Immortal Realm for many years likely cannot hold so many Immortal Artifacts!"
"What? Hundreds of Immortal Artifacts? Second Elder Panzhu, from where do you obtain this information; is it true? There exists a Human Race Earth Immortal holding hundreds of Immortal Artifacts?"
For the Black Tortoise Race Grand Elder, this news appeared to be heard for the first time, evident from the profound expression of surprise manifesting on his turtle-like visage.
Similarly, the Fire Phoenix Race Elder Yan Liao was exceedingly startled,
"I only heard that this mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal gifted the Qilin Race eighteen Immortal Artifacts in total! This occurrence alone is immensely remarkable!
Those are Immortal Artifacts, not mere Magical Artifacts! Even living for tens of thousands of years, it’s my first time hearing of hundreds of Immortal Artifacts present simultaneously in the hands of a single cultivator!
This account seems utterly unbelievable!
Even the most accomplished artifact refiner among the Human Race could not casually refine hundreds of Immortal Artifacts!"
With a complex expression, the Second Elder Panzhu of the Cyan Dragon Race expressed:
"Initially, I found it hard to believe this news too, despite the messenger demon king who conveyed this message having seen it with his own eyes!
However, reason forces my belief; contemplating carefully reveals that if this mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal did not possess hundreds of Immortal Artifacts, then how could he so easily gift eighteen Immortal Artifacts to the Qilin Race? It’s implausible that the mysterious Human Race Earth Immortal possessed only eighteen Immortal Artifacts and then gifted all to the Qilin Race!
At this juncture, he gazes toward the Qilin Race Elder Clan Leader, "As for the veracity of the news, the Elder Clan Leader of the Qilin Race surely is well-informed!"
